Tips for Uganda Safari Tours

Send Enquiry
Currency and Money: The Ugandan society predominantly runs and operates on cash, especially open-air markets, making it quintessential for you to convert your regional currency to Ugandan Shilling. Luckily, official conversion centres are available in almost all major towns, and conversion is not a major issue. Before travelling, do make sure to notify your home bank about your possible usage of your ATM card in Uganda to make sure that your card is not denied.

Private v/s Group Tour: Private tours are obviously a bit more expensive than a group one, but allow you the room to customise your tour depending on the number of participants, the destinations and your preferred duration of the tour, upon which you are quoted a price for reservation. Group tours on the other hand are mostly preferred by solo travellers looking for an economic way to explore Uganda.

Visa: Uganda travel laws strictly dictate on the need to obtain a Ugandan Visa upon arrival. Except the Somalian citizens, you must first obtain a Ugandan e-visa which you must convert into a physical document upon arrival.

Best Time to Visit: The best time to visit Uganda is undoubtedly the dry season and  monsoon. The country being extremely close to the equator, you shall not experience the extremes of temperature, and the weather conditions hover from tropical to temperate. The dry seasons are preferred for optimum game viewing and tracking.
